In recent years, 3D technology has been a popular area of study that has allowed researchers to explore a number of novel computer architectures. One of the more popular topics is that of integrating 3D main memory dies below the computing die and connecting them with through-silicon vias (TSVs). This is assumed to reduce off-chip main memory access latencies by roughly 45% to 60%. Our detailed circuit-level models, however, demonstrate that this latency reduction from the TSVs is significantly less. In this paper, we present these models, compare 2D and 3D main memory latencies, and show that the reduction in latency from using 3D main memory to be no more than 2.4 ns. We also show that although the wider I/O bus width enabled by using TSVs increases performance, it may do so with an increase in power consumption. Although TSVs consume less power per bit transfer than off-chip metal interconnects (11.2 times less power per bit transfer), TSVs typically use considerably more bits and may result in a net increase in power due to the large number of bits in the memory I/O bus. Our analysis shows that although a 3D memory hierarchy exploiting a wider memory bus can increase performance, this performance increase may not justify the net increase in power consumption.

Mobility is the key device parameter to affect circuit performance in flexible thin-film transistor (TFT) technologies, and it is very sensitive to the change of mechanical strain and temperature. However, existing algorithms only consider the impact of mechanical strain in cell placement of flexible TFT circuit. Without taking temperature into consideration, mobility may be dramatically decreased which leads to circuit performance degradation. This paper presents the first work to reduce the mobility influence caused by the change of both mechanical strain and temperature. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithms can effectively reduce the chip temperature and the influence caused by mobility variation.

Recent researches on STT-RAM revealed that device scaling makes its write operations unreliable. To mitigate the impact of this problem, this paper proposes a low-cost, ECC-based solution for STT-RAM caches. In particular, it proposes to share storage for ECC among different blocks within a set and to use them only for unsuccessful write operations. Experimental results show that our scheme reduces 74% to 98% of area overhead incurred by the conventional per-block ECC while maintaining system performance and reliability.

We introduce a static binary translation flow in native simulation context for cross-compiled VLIW executables. This approach is interesting in situations where either the source code is not available or the target platform is not supported by any retargetable compilation framework, which is usually the case for VLIW processors. The generated simulators execute on a Hardware-Assisted Virtualization (HAV) based native platform. We have implemented this approach for a TI C6x series processor and our simulation results show a speed-up of around two orders of magnitude compared to the cycle accurate simulators.

Character projection (CP) is a high-speed mask-less exposure technique for electron-beam direct writing (EBDW). In CP exposure of VIA layers, higher throughput is realized if more VIAs are exposed in each EB shot, but it will result in huge number of VIA characters required for arbitrary VIA placement. We adopt one-dimensional VIA array as the basic CP character architecture to increase VIA numbers in an EB shot while saving the stencil area by superposed character arrangement. CP throughput is further improved by layout constraints for VIA placement in detail routing phase. Our experimental results give estimated EB shot counts less than 174G shot/wafer in 14nm technologies.

This paper presents a framework for schedule integration of time-triggered systems tailored to the automotive domain. In-vehicle networks might be very large and complex and hence obtaining a schedule for a fully synchronous system becomes a challenging task since all bus and processor constraints as well as end-to-end-timing constraints have to be taken concurrently into account. Existing optimization approaches apply the schedule optimization to the entire network, limiting their application due to scalability issues. In contrast, the presented framework obtains the schedule for the entire network, using a two-step approach where for each cluster a local schedule is obtained first and the local schedules are then merged to the global schedule. This approach is also in accordance with the design process in the automotive industry where different subsystems are developed independently to reduce the design complexity and are finally combined in the integration stage. In this paper, a generic framework for schedule integration of time-triggered systems is presented. Further, we show how this framework is implemented for a FlexRay network using an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) approach which might also be easily adapted to other protocols. A realistic case study and a scalability analysis give evidence of the applicability and efficiency of our approach.

Emerging mobile systems integrate a lot of functionality into a small form factor with a small energy source in the form of rechargeable battery. This situation necessitates accurate estimation of the remaining energy in the battery such that user applications can be judicious on how they consume this scarce and precious resource. This paper thus focuses on estimating the remaining battery energy in Android OS-based mobile systems. This paper proposes to instrument the Android kernel in order to collect and report accurate subsystem activity values based on real-time profiling of the running applications. The activity information along with offline-constructed, regression-based power macro models for major subsystems in the smartphone yield the power dissipation estimate for the whole system. Next, while accounting for the rate-capacity effect in batteries, the total power dissipation data is translated into the battery's energy depletion rate, and subsequently, used to compute the battery's remaining lifetime based on its current state of charge information. Finally, this paper describes a novel application design framework, which considers the batterys state-of-charge (SOC), batterys energy depletion rate, and service quality of the target application. The benefits of the design framework are illustrated by examining an archetypical case, involving the design space exploration and optimization of a GPS-based application in an Android OS.

Modern PCBs have to be routed manually since no EDA tools can successfully route these complex boards. An auto-router for PCBs would improve design productivity tremendously since each board takes about 2 months to route manually. This paper focuses on a major step in PCB routing called bus planning. In the bus planning problem, we need to simultaneously solve the bus decomposition, escape routing, layer assignment and global bus routing. This problem was partially addressed by Kong et al. in [3] where they only focused on the layer assignment and global bus routing, assuming bus decomposition and escape routing are given. In this paper, we present an ILP-based solution to the entire bus planning problem. We apply our bus planner to an industrial PCB (with over 7000 nets and 12 signal layers) which was previously successfully routed manually, and compare with a state-of-the-art industrial internal tool where the layer assignment and global bus routing are based on the algorithm in [3]. Our bus planner successfully routed 97.4% of all the nets. This is a huge improvement over the industrial tool which could only achieve 84.7% routing completion for this board.

A DVFS controlled 90-nm CMOS multimedia processor was developed. To make full use of the advantages of DVFS, we developed the A2BC algorithm that can predict the optimum clock frequency and the optimum supply voltage. The measured power dissipation of the DVFS controlled multimedia processor was significantly reduced. Thus, DVFS employing the A2BC algorithm is one of the most useful power reduction for future video encoding applications.
